Who got published/self published

I didn't even think about this...why does this not exist? I'm also curious as to the "stats" of these published games. How many exist of each genre and that sort of thing!

altough I have bigger board game projects (prototypes) as well I prefer card games or simplier board games much more of their quicker process of prototyping and playtesting.

Now I have some published games even with bigger publishers:
- Alles Käse! by ABACUSSPIELE (The publisher with multiple Spiel des jahres winnings including 2013)
- Food Chain by Brain Games from Latvia who has done good work - f.e. now the game is published by Dino Toys the biggest Chezh game publisher. (this is the game I started here and the first entry at BGDF is dated 05.04.2009 http://www.bgdf.com/node/1248
- Om Nom Nom by Brain Games - I will present this game at Essen this year

I don't know if I technically count, but I'm the designer of DVG's upcoming "Cards of Cthulhu" and I'm working with Victory Point on an unannounced game.

I happened to sign up here the night before DVG posted that they were looking for games... so technically I was a member before my first game was published.

What is published, self-published vs not publishedd, really? I guess technically as soon as you put files for print'n'play online somewhere (free or not) the game has been (self-)published, and I would prefer that definition.

I think this should be pinned and the OP should edit his initial post to put a link to the list. That way all people who come can find this thread and it will lead them to the list to help it grow!

You can ask, it's whether the request is granted or not that is in question. Pinning it would be a morale booster in my opinion. (Well going to the journal and seeing all the people that have been published would be)

He also got a great review from Tom Vassel on the Dice Tower! I must admit the game looks like a very fast and fun game. It reminds me of another game called Sleeping Queens which is another very fun game.

The artwork is cute and the game is very simple and fun and was invented by a six year old who couldn't fall asleep.

I do have overlord powers, and I think it wouldn't be an abuse of them to make the games list a pinned thread. However, I might ask that there is more division in the list - breaking it up by publisher rather than user. There's not "spreadsheet" function on BGDF, but this list would be great for a google spreadsheet that could then be embedded in the post here.

Here's a link explaining how to do this From a random site on the internet.

I'll actually do this myself, if you give me permission, Aerjen.

There reason I see to put it on a spreadsheet ordered a bit differently is so people coming to the list for various reasons (perhaps new to BGDF and wishing to see our street-cred, or other community members looking for help dealing with a particular publisher, etc) can find the info more easily (particularly when it comes to game that are picked up by publishers versus games that are PNP).

Our desperate pleas of mercey made it to the ears of one of our great and dear overlord's (may his name live on forever).

On a more serious note, this makes sense. Not only does it help with streetcred but it also is a source of confidence showing that, yes people from here do get published without self publishing or PnP.

The overload is out right now.

If you want someing that everyone can edit how about a Wiki?

Fortunately you can embed a google doc right into a blog entry with an HTML snippet, and you can set it to be un-editable. Aerjen is right that a filter (ie a quick click on the "designer" or "publisher" heading in the spreadsheet) would let viewers sort the data as they see fit.

I don't believe a wiki has either the benefit of filtering or locking access to editing it.
